She's got several things working against her.
One, young stars who make bank on a movie early in their career, especially if its high profile, seldom seem to have the drive to continue their career. It's pretty easy to coast on their earnings and live in the party scene. It's worse for actresses, as they can't take a gap year, they have to front load their careers while they are young as roles for women dry up in their mid-late 30s.
Her big role was in a fantasy show, so she's kind of got the "science fiction/fantasy" label stuck to her. You can probably work this into a career, but the typecasting will keep you from rising up to more critically acclaimed roles.
The other is she doesn't fit Hollywood's model of beauty, and this will keep her out of a lot of productions as well.
If she was smart, she'd invest well, pad it out with as much SF/fantasy as she can get cast for, and look forward to a life of leisure at 30.
